Let’s not forget that we also have an abundance of beautiful places to visit right here at our doorstep. From North Coast beaches to Nile cruises that take in the ancient temples of Luxor and the Nubian villages of Aswan. From the eerie mountain landscape of South Sinai to salt lakes and the wide expanse of desert surrounding Siwa. From sandboarding in Fayoum to drifting down the river in a felucca, it’s no exaggeration that the breadth of landscapes and experiences available to anyone traveling in Egypt is difficult to match.
